A rich bronze cup with roasted notes and malty finish. The Moragalla Estate is located just 60m above sea level in the south of the island.The increased salt content of the soils is absorbed by the tea bushes and represents an important building block in the production of this tea. The Moragalla tea plants are generally more mature and just two or three leaves and a bud are picked for this tea. During the processing care is taken that the sheet material is not damaged or bruised but only broken. This results in natural oxidation during the fermentation process. Result: the black long open leaf gives a bronze colored cup with light roasted notes and malty finishes against the background of a spicy base character.

Not overpowering but unmistakably Ceylon. Mild yet flavourful, a great introduction to green teas, especially oolongs.
excellent afternoon pick-me-up
It's a good tea. Unsurprisingly somewhere between standard Ceylon black and a teiguanjin oolong. Unlike other oolong it doesn't cope well with multiple brewing
